Case

IN THE LARGEST INTELLIGENT GRID PROJECT WORLDWIDE, TEPCO IS DEPLOYING LANDIS+GYR’S GRIDSTREAM® SOLUTION, BUILDING THE WORLD’S LARGEST IOT UTILITY NETWORK. THE OPEN-STANDARDS APPROACH CHOSEN MEETS THE HIGHEST REQUIREMENTS WITH REGARD TO INTEROPERABILITY, SCALABILITY, AND SECURITY.

TOKYO ELECTRIC POWER COMPANY (TEPCO)

TEPCO is the largest electric utility in Japan and the fourth-largest in the world. The utility brings electricity to over 27 million service locations in the greater Tokyo area, serving more than 45 million people.

CONNECTING THE MODEL MEGACITY

One of TEPCO’s top priorities is to deliver services that promote efficient energy use by its customers, while transforming itself into a future-oriented infrastructure company that contributes to a safe and comfortable Smart Community. In pursuing this vision, TEPCO aims to establish a new electricity business model in response to Japan’s efforts to reform its electricity system. For example, deregulation of the Japanese electricity market requires all meter reads for customers utilizing an alternative retailer to be pushed to a common portal every 30 minutes, allowing the energy retailers near-real-time access to customer data.

LANDIS+GYR SOLUTION: 1.3 BILLION INTERVAL METER READS PER DAY

Landis+Gyr’s communication network and grid management technology supports multiple Smart Grid and Smart City initiatives at TEPCO. Key functionalities include the ability to operate 6.5 million demand response requests per hour to address such issues as surplus electricity countermeasures, night-time demand creation, demand shift, solar energy output control, battery storage as well as incentivized demand response. Driving this connected platform is Landis+Gyr’s IPv6 multi-technology network, which connects utility and consumer devices using RF Mesh, G3 PLC and cellular communications, providing Wi-SUN-compliant connectivity to each installation. In April 2017, the milestone project surpassed 10 million advanced meters and devices installed. Upon completion expected for 2020, or even earlier, the TEPCO deployment will include more than 27 million devices transmitting 1.3 billion interval data packages daily, all processed by Landis+Gyr’s Head-End System (HES) and Meter Data Management Solution (MDMS).
